I wish there was a time for cooking this in a 9″ pan as one cake…I have one in the oven right now and it’s taking forEVER! It tasted good as a batter although I may have accidentally added an extra cup of sugar (Try making this while chasing a 3yr old around and you’ll understand.) I won’t blame the recipe if this comes out wrong but I am hoping it will be good!

I just wanted to say again how good this cake is. I made 72 cupcakes and a smash cake for my 1 year old’s birthday and every single batch came out wonderfully. I used beet juice in place of food coloring and it looked very pink and festive. I can’t imagine how this wouldn’t turn out for somebody unless they didn’t read the directions carefully.

I made this cake one time and won’t make it again. I had to split it in half so I could place a layer of strawberry jam in between to give it some flavor. I agree with some of you that the color was brown/red and tasted like wheat flour. It also took too long to bake up and still was slightly sticky. I also followed the recipe and not a novice at baking. I don’t use box mixes, but would in the case of making strawberry cake again.

Disaster! What an expensive waste of Spanish Strawberries!
The 28 minute cooking time was not long enough, as these cup cakes sank faster than the Titanic.
Would not feed this to my dog.
Bad recipes such as this should be banished from the Internet

This is a great recipe! I chose to omit the food coloring and while it didn’t turn out the lovely pink pictured, it still had a nice, natural color and tasted great! I made cupcakes and they turned out moist and not at all dense. I agree with other reviewers that any negative reviews must just be user error.
